00:00President Donald Trump is once again promising a $5,000 payment to every adult U.S. citizen
00:06if Republicans retain control of both the House and Senate in November.
00:10Trump is calling it a dividend and says strong economic performance and tariff revenue would
00:16help fund the plan. But the proposal comes with major unanswered questions, including how Congress
00:22would authorize the payments and where the money would come from. The potential price tag could
00:27reach roughly $1.2 trillion, putting the ambitious pledge squarely in the spotlight ahead of Election
00:33Day.
